Collins is currently considering submissions from the public for words they would like to see included in the online version of its dictionary.

Words will be reviewed by dictionary editors for their frequency of use and staying power in sources including papers, social media and radio. Hopefuls will find out if their favourite word has been accepted in around three weeks, while those rejected will be monitored and reviewed over the following year – just in case they proved ahead of their time.

We asked Guardian readers to come up with words they use regularly and think should be adopted. The results were amusing and sometimes baffling - here is the top five from the thread. Now vote on the Guardian's number one new word!
